Erratum: The bias of DLAs at z ∼ 2.3: evidence for very strong stellar feedback in shallow potential wells

We discuss the recent Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey measurement of a rather high bias factor for the host galaxies/haloes of Damped Lyman-alpha Absorbers (DLAs), in the context of our previous modelling of the physical properties of DLAs within the $\Lambda$ cold dark matter paradigm. Joint modelling of the column density distribution, the velocity width distribution of associated low ionization metal absorption, and the bias parameter suggests that DLAs are hosted by galaxies with dark matter halo masses in the range $10 35 %) in haloes above the cutoff.
